Boy Shorts

I finally finished up some shorts for Matthew that I've had sitting around for a while. They are simple flat front and elastic waist back, and are soft and comfortable so he will actually wear them! He helped me design a few summer t-shirts, too. This one is just an iron on image of Iron Man. I don't sew as much for Matthew because it is so easy to find cheap shorts and t-shirts. But it is fun to add a few homemade things and personalized touches here and there.

Green Shorts

Matthew always asks if what I am sewing is for him, and it rarely is. He was very excited to hear that I was making these green shorts for him! I used this tutorial for the basic pattern and shape. And I did slant pockets in the front instead of patch pockets. I think next time I will make them a little bit wider and shorter, but overall they fit pretty well.
